If that happens I'm gonna buy a foreign VPN with Monero. Fuck you I'll never let you strip my anonymity. Unles they implement a way for the age verification to be anonymous and only send a token that says 18+ (yes/no)

Assuming this is not made up obviously grey is in the wrong

Oh okay. The title insinuated that they were building their own replacement so I was confused. This seems much more reasonable

But half the earth is in darkness at once? You want to really transport solar energy across half the earth at mass?

Bro wtf? Time to stop using the website using these anti-competitive captchas. I hope they get fined for this

What about people who use iPhones? Even if I used a normal google android I wouldn't want to be bothered to scan a qr code with my phone to verify myself every time

Don't we have GitLab and Codeberg already? I mean I'm here for variety and choice but this isn't grounbreaking

Honestly its kinda sad to see how Azerbaijan is just pushing around Armenia in recent years. I hope Armenia will have a path to the EU but its gonna be hard since without any border or Georgia being part of the EU the benefits will be more limited.

Building out capacity to transport a massive amount of energy over thousands of kilometers isn't really that great either. Also, when it comes to night this is kinda not possible to avoid

But for a stable network you need to account for times with no sun and no wind.

 

I know Wero is still in its infancy and the digital Euro is still a few years away, even if you believe there'll be no delays. But depending on where you live you can already do a lot for EU financial independence.

  • Use cash (very easy but not ideal in many situations/online)
  • Use a national payment providers:
    • Germany 🇩🇪: Girocard
    • Netherlands 🇳🇱: iDEAL
    • France 🇫🇷: Cartes Bancaires
    • Poland 🇵🇱: BLIK
    • Italy 🇮🇹:Bancomat/PagoBancomat
    • Many other options, check for your country
  • Use SEPA direct debit mandate or wire money directly if you can
  • Sign up to a european crypto exchange and use it for direct purchases. although I get if you don't like crypto but this is just for direct purchases

Otherwise American Payment providers usually get at least 1% and if you use card payment a lot over time that can really add up. This also mostly makes sense when buying from a european company. For US companies it really doesn't matter much. I've been trying to replace Amazon with Otto and I use SEPA direct debit mandate to avoid fees.

 

Since I was curious I checked the actual amount of upvotes and downvotes of my post on mbin. It got 56 upvotes and 66 downvotes according to them since I was curious. Seems I hurt their little ego when I mentioned blocking their instance.
